From Doctor Who:
The Doctor: People don't understand time. It's not what you think it is.
Sally: Then what is it?
The Doctor: Complicated.
Sally: Tell me.
The Doctor: Very complicated.
Sally: I'm clever, and I'm listening, and don't patronise me because people have died and I'm not happy. Tell me.
The Doctor: People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect... but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly.... timey-wimey.... stuff.
Sally: That sentence started good
(from Blink)
Captain Jack: So there I was, stranded in the year twoûhundredûoneûhundred, ankle-deep in Dalek dust, he goes off without me. But I had this [taps his wrist strap] I used to be a Time Agent, itÆs called a Vortex Manipulator. HeÆs not the only one who can time travelû
The Doctor: Excuse me, thatÆs not time travel. ItÆs like, IÆve got a sports car, youÆve got a Space Hopper.
Martha: Oh ho ho! Boys and their toys.
Captain Jack: All right, so I bounced. I thought, twentyûfirst century, thatÆs the best place to find the Doctor. Except I got it a little bit wrong, arrived in 1869, and this thing burnt out, so it was useless-
The Doctor: Told you!
Captain Jack: [ignoring the Doctor's last comment] Then I had to live through the entire twentieth century, waiting to find the version of you that would coincide with me.
Martha: But that makes you more than a hundred years old.
Captain Jack: And looking good, donÆt you think? So, I went to the Time Rift, 'cause I knew youÆd come back to refuel, until finally, I get a signal on this thing [he indicates his rucksack] detecting you... and here we are!
(from Utopia)
And the best:
Martha: But the thing is, why'd you leave him behind, Doctor?
The Doctor: [dismissively] I was busy.
Martha: Is that what happens though, seriously? You just get bored of us one day and disappear?
Captain Jack: Not if you're blonde.
Martha: [sarcastically] Oh, she was blonde! Oh, what a surprise!
The Doctor: [spinning around, irritated] You two, we're at the end of the universe. Okay?! Right at the edge of knowledge itself! And you're busy... [struggling to find the right word] blogging!!
(from Utopia, again)
